A story that spans generations
For over two centuries, Tenuta Marengo has kept a simple philosophy: respect the land, wait for the right time, create a true wine.
Each bottle tells the character of the Piedmontese terroir and the value of genuine organic farming.
On an estate with more than 200 years of history, each season adds a mark, never erasing what came before.
Production is based on low yields and strict grape selection, to preserve balance, identity, and expression of the land.
The result is an essential wine, built on balance and restraint, seeking not effects but consistency.
A wine that tells the place it comes from, with no need for anything else.
Tenuta Marengo: Wine made the way it used to be.
An estate established in the 19th century that has remained entirely organic, preserving the same methods to produce a pure, truly organic wine with a unique flavor.We stand against those who slap the "Organic" label on products where it doesn't belong.We stand against those who—without their customers' knowledge—introduce carcinogenic chemicals into their vineyards (and thus into the wine itself) solely to maximize production.We chose to take a stand against them by reviving an estate with 200 years of history and creating our own wine. Our goal isn't to rake in heaps of money, but simply to craft a truly organic wine with a taste that is impossible to find anywhere else today.

The 3 Truths About Organic Wine
That No Producer Will Ever Tell You
1. Organic Farming and Organic Wine!
Most organic vineyards, which don't use systemic products or herbicides to grow their grapes, border other lands where they use all these chemicals that persist in the soil.
All this will inevitably end up in the neighboring vineyard or other organic crop through the water absorbed by the soil.
OUR LANDS DO NOT BORDER ANY OTHER CROPS.
2. The “peasant” wine is not always a genuine wine
It's commonly believed that "farmer's wine" is genuine because it's made the way it used to be.
Being in the industry and owning a farm with over 200 years of history, I can tell you that farmers do indeed make wine the way they used to be.
But even long ago, sulfites, herbicides, and chemicals were used, often superficially, even without proper dosage.
This is why drinking a wine "made the way it used to be" very often means drinking a wine made superficially.
A wine that's been processed even more than necessary and with little awareness of what's being done, with chemicals unknown to those who produce it, and often of mediocre flavor and quality, which causes headaches or heartburn after just one glass.
3. Quantity makes you lose quality
All winemakers want to maximize their vineyard yields with abundant harvests; they all want to maximize the income derived from each hectare of land.
However, this inevitably leads to a wine of extremely inferior quality.
If you don't thin out (remove bunches from the vine), the tightly packed bunches won't ripen perfectly (hence low alcohol content and high acidity).
Furthermore, among the dense bunches, you risk harvesting rotten and moldy grapes by machine, which will then be vinified and poured into a beautiful glass without your knowledge.
In fact, with large production runs, you're forced to use only machinery to harvest and process the grapes, and it's thus impossible to select the bunches from which to make the wine.
But many people don't care about this because no one will ever know.
We've decided to keep our production to a minimum, so as not to sacrifice the quality, safety, and unique flavor of our wine.
